Mal Pelo


ico Mal Pelo resumes the tour of Pep Ramis’ solo The Mountain, the Truth and Paradise for the 2020-2021 season. Company rehearsals for the performance at the FAM Festival, Tenerife, Italy.

This solo piece grew out of the need to construct a personal fiction, to bring the experience of recent work up to date and look into current artistic interests. Working
as a solo artist also involves reviewing the tools of the trade gathered over a
long career as a performance creator.
The Mountain, the Truth & the Paradise is a poetic world questioning the
meaning of divinity and vulgarity, spirituality and ignorance, beauty and banality.



The performer’s ability to transform himself into a bare, blank space, and precision
of movement and voice are the main aims of the score of this piece, which offers
a journey full of variety, feeling and stimulation.

Throughout the creative process, Pep has had the support of Jordi Casanovas and
María Muñoz as directors, August Viladomat as lighting designer and Fanny Thollot
as designer of the sound track.

There is an attraction opposite to that of the earth.
A force that shoots the fruit up above the tree,
raises mountains,
whips up the tides and fire.
It is the force that is there in prayers and serenades,
in the moribund, in rising bread,
in the throat of the wolf,
the toss of a hat
or a cry of pain
Erri de Luca
